Clinical, immunohistochemical, and genetic characterization of splice-altering biallelic DES variants: Therapeutic implications

Summary: Pathogenic variants in the DES gene clinically manifest as progressive skeletal muscle weakness, cardiomyopathy with associated severe arrhythmias, and respiratory insufficiency, and are collectively known as desminopathies. While most DES pathogenic variants act via a dominant mechanism, r...
